On the fourth day of Christmas....

it was Christmas shirt day in my classroom. I didn't really have anything and then we got this idea....I could wear one of the ugly sweatshirts Dudley and I used for our ugly sweater party. I ended up wearing the one Dudley originally wore, and then to top it off I wore shoes that didn't really match. I was wondering if anyone would say anything to me about it. All I got from people were some looks like they didn't know if I was serious about the shirt or not, and one lady told me she liked the shirt. LOL. Here is a picture (I have to say it isn't flattering...it makes me look huge...but honestly the sweatshirt is HUGE):

On the third day of Christmas.....

the class I work with the majority of my time wore Christmas hats. Most of the children came in with Santa hats on. A few had a head band with reindeer antlers on them. One little girl had an elf hat on, and another little boy had a Santa hat on, but it also came with an attached beard/mustache. It was so cute!

On the second day of Christmas.....

I received two gifts from a couple girls in my class:

On the first day of Christmas.....

I finished decorating the tree. About a week ago while Mom and Dad were at the church getting the stage ready for the children's musical, Dudley and I put up the tree and then I put on white lights. That's as far as I got until today because we have been so busy with the adult musical. So tonight I finished it. Here it is:

New Idea....

So I have thought of a way to stay up-to-date this month with my blog......I am going to do the 12 days of Christmas! I have some time to think of some ideas since it is just December 1...but I am going to be as creative as I can with this!


So be waiting for December 14th....that is when I am going to start my first day of Christmas!

Birthday Date with Dudley

I am so blessed to have a wonderful boyfriend! Dudley took me to the Melting Pot for my birthday date on Friday night. It was fun to go there with him because neither of us had been there before!

Here are some pictures from our night (they aren't the greatest because the lighting was low and I didn't want to use the flash):

Before we left.

Can you tell I was excited?? LOL

Our cheese course. We got the Spinach and Artichoke cheese.

Only part of our main entree's

I was SUPER excited for the free chocolate we got. There were 10 to choose from. We went with the Cookies and Cream Marshmellow Dream. It was dark chocolate with marshmellow whip, and then Oreo cookie crumbs. Yum-my!

And this is how we felt when it was all over. LOL! But as you can see.....



It was all well worth it!

Halloween....

This is one holiday our family does not celebrate. We have always either done things with the church or just left the house and done our own thing. This year Mom, Dad, Adam, Andrea, Dudley and I went bowling and then to Taco Bell.



On the way



Thats right! I beat EVERYONE!! Even my Dad! This never happens!!


Dudley is sad because I beat him :)
